Welcome to my blog. I have upwards of 100 projects in various stages of incompletion or total abandonment, so you may well find something of interest. I try to post about everything I do, not just what goes according to plan, with lots of ideas for potential projects that will probably never see the light of day!

Defenders of the North West Frontier

This month's issue of Aeroplane features an article all about No39 Squadron and it's action over the North West Frontier between 1929 and 1939. There are a number of black and white photographs, some of which no doubt feature the Hawker Hart that my grandfather flew, although they are too blurred to identify the specific aircraft.

It's a great article nonetheless and well worth a read. I'm going to email the photos that my grandfather took to the magazine in the hope that they might be published or, at the very least, allow me to follow up the story of his experiences in the interwar RAF over the North West Frontier.
